Respiration Topics To Be Studied 12/15 and 12/17 and on your own during January Data Collection

You May Use My Notes, Your At-Home Text, and The Scanned 6.4 Section on this Website

• Be able to describe the purpose of ventilation
• Describe structure and function for alveoli, including type I and type II pneumocytes (cells in the alveoli)
• Identify anatomy of the respiratory system, including trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, diaphragm, and intercostal muscles
• Be able to describe “negative pressure” breathing and the muscle contractions that force air in and out of the lungs (inspiration and expiration)
• Understand the concept of antagonistic muscle action and the antagonist pairs at work in breathing
• Be able to discuss causes and consequences of lung cancer and emphysema
• Suggest methods for monitoring of ventilation in humans at rest and after mild and vigorous exercise (ventilation rate and tidal volume)

Heart Quiz on Tuesday, December 15

What's on it?

• Label parts on a heart diagram (similar to the one on your circulation worksheet)
• Outline the path of the blood through the heart chambers, vessels, and valves
• Distinguish between arteries, veins, and capillaries in terms of their properties, locations, etc.
• Describe how valves (heart and vein) work to keep blood going one way and not the other
• Describe the control of the heart beat (via sinoatrial node, 2 nerves from medulla of brain, and a hormone.  Also know about the conducting fibers and what it means to be myogenic muscle)

Now until Winter Break!!

• Wed 12/9:  AM:  Notes on Blood Vessels and Heart Structure.  Finish working on Circulation Worksheet and get it checked off.  Turn in Dissection observations/drawings/and measurements if not already.  PM:  Cadaver Field Trip!  Please arrive in the room by 11:40 so that we can leave in good time.  Bring your Tri-Met pass, wear comfortable clothes, and make sure that you are well-rested and fed.
• Fri 12/11:  Control of the Heart Beat.  Use measuring tools to take blood pressure and heart rate.  Go over what will be on the Heart Quiz next Tuesday.  Turn in your proposed research question for the "Big IA".
• Tues 12/15:  Review the heart!!  Circulation Quiz on blood vessels, path of the blood through the heart, valve function, and control of the heart's rhythm.  When finished, study the structure of the lungs.  If time, we will go over the process of breathing.
• Thurs 12/17:  Please turn your proposed procedure for the Big IA, including the equipment that you will need.  Gas exchange at the alveoli.  Read 6.4.

11/16-12/3

• Tues 11/17:  Jeopardy Review for Evolution Test.  Take data for Populations Lab.
• Thurs 11/19:  Take Evolution Test.  Pick up Digestion Coloring sheet and review the digestive system for next Monday.
• Mon 11/23:  Overview of the digestive system.  Longitudinal section of the small intestine.  Digestive enzymes.  Complete coloring the digestive system.  Read 6.1 from IB Bio text (see link on website).  Bring signed Cadaver Field trip form for students going on the am field trip on Tuesday, December 1st.  Afternoon trip is on Wed, December 9.
• Wed 11/25:  Populations Lab due today through turnitin.com.  Go over structure of villi and absorption in the digestive system.  Quiz on the digestive system next Thursday, December 3rd.
• Thursday/Friday:  No School for Thanksgiving Holiday.
• Tues 12/1:  Cadaver Field Trip for 5th period (and other students electing to go on this field trip).  Please arrive to class by 8:00, so we can leave exactly at 8:10!!  7th and 8th periods will still have class today.  We will be studying the structure and function of blood vessels.  We will also brainstorm Internal Assessment ideas for the "Big IA".
• Thurs 12/3:  Review for digestive system quiz.  Take quiz.   Structure of the heart and blood flow through the system.  

PM Cadaver Field Trip next Wed 12/9.  Get your Field Trip form signed and turned in by Monday 12/7!!

10.3 Questions to be done in your notebook

1. Define gene pool
2. Define evolution in terms of allele frequencies
3. Describe 3 patterns of natural selection (directional, stabilizing, disruptive)
4. Look at data-based questions on 456 and 457 and briefly describe what each study is showing
5. Do data-based questions on p. 458
6. Describe different categories of reproductive isolation: geographic (allopatric), behavioral, temporal (sympatric).  Give examples of each.
7. Do Bird song questions on p. 459.
8. Distinguish between gradualism and punctuated equilibrium in evolution.  Why did scientists look towards a “punctuated” model?
9. Describe polyploidy and how it contributes to evolution.

Biodiversity Test on Thursday 10/15

The test will consist of:
1)  6-8 Multiple Choice Questions
2)  I will give you 8-10 organisms to sort and you can sort them using a cladogram or a dichotomous key
3)  1 data-based question (including 3-4 questions)
4) 3-5 short answer questions.  Could include comparisons of organisms in different phyla or chordate classes, a question on how to make cladograms using amino acid sequences, question on the binomial system, the 3 domains, etc.
5)  List 2 distinct species from Kingdom to Species (must be at least in different classes)
6)  You might have to interpret a cladogram that has numbers on it, using the numbers to determine how far apart the species are evolutionarily.
